We all know western style is having a major moment (thanks to it’s general iconic nature and also Beyoncé). But I’m here to say that the fall, and specifically this fall, is western’s true style moment (think of the jackets and hats and boots!) and when you’re considering how to style your outfits this autumn, you should really be considering this aesthetic. If you’ve felt the crisp air coming in and you’ve been wondering what your vibe shift should be, may we humbly submit western details for your consideration? Some incredible outfit inspo for you to get excited about below. Happy fall to all who celebrate!

About the Model: Isabelle Fuhrman

Before we get into the styling advice, don’t you just love a “life imitates art” moment? That’s exactly what’s happening here, with actor Isabelle Fuhrman modeling clothes that would be right at home in her new Civil War era movie Horizon: An American Saga—Chapter 1. And speaking of art, you’ll be seeing a lot more of Isabelle in films like Julia Stiles’s directorial debut, Wish You Were Here, and in the upcoming dark thriller Unit 234. Let’s just say that if soon-to-be-very-famous people had giddyup eras, she’d be in hers.

Now, let’s get back to the fashion.

If you want to embrace the western trend at all, you know you’ll need a specific kind of hat. Luckily for everyone going into fall, cowboy hats protect from rain and snow just as well as they do from sun. Cowboys think of everything, don’t they?
